I have just started to raise some of these birds. I have 1 roo and 8 hens. They are laying now. When I tried to hatch some they did not hatch. I'm thinking my roo was too young. I will be trying again soon. Can't wait to see the babies.
I have just recently gotten 2 roosters and three hens of the dark cornish bantams. All the hens are laying, I hope to get a few in the incubator this week, I have never raised dark any dark cornish before. but count me in on the thread. i am interested in all I can learn about them.
These birds came to us from a very reliable source concerning their trueness as to their type of breed. They have been around for a long time 75 to 80 years "underground" so to speak, they haven't been advertised. I'm glad I have a trio in my stock. Also glad you enjoyed the pictures more to come!
